Tampa's housing runs from 1920s bungalows in Seminole Heights and Hyde Park to new construction in New Tampa. Older urban neighborhoods frequently have cast iron drains, cloth wiring and original panels — the conditions carriers scrutinize most closely on a 4-Point.
If your Tampa home is 30 years or older, most Florida carriers will request a 4-Point before they write or renew. If it was permitted after 2002 — or you have replaced the roof or added impact windows or shutters — a wind mitigation report is usually the faster route to a lower premium. We complete both on the state-approved forms and deliver within 24 hours.

A 4-Point is an underwriting document, not a full home inspection. For Tampa homes we document four systems and photograph each one: electrical (panel brand and amperage, wiring type, double-taps, open splices — Federal Pacific Stab-Lok and Zinsco panels are the most common cause of a decline), plumbing (supply and drain materials and water heater age — polybutylene supply lines are the single most frequent reason a Florida policy is refused), HVAC (age, condition and any unsafe or leaking equipment), and roofing (estimated age, remaining useful life and visible damage).
Wind mitigation credits apply to the wind portion of your premium, usually the largest single component of a Florida policy. We document all seven categories on the state-approved OIR-B1-1802 form: building code compliance, roof covering, roof deck attachment, roof-to-wall attachment, roof geometry, secondary water resistance and opening protection. Attic access is essential — roof-to-wall attachment is frequently the largest single credit and cannot be verified without photographs from inside the attic. Reports are generally accepted for five years.
Book online, choose a time from live availability, and pay securely. Most 4-Point inspections take 45 to 90 minutes on site. Your completed report arrives as a digital PDF within 24 hours of us leaving the property — on the state-approved form, with photo documentation, ready to forward straight to your agent or underwriter. Call or text 813-607-2300 with questions about your Tampa property.
Most Florida carriers request a 4-Point once a home reaches 30 years old, and some start at 25. Tampa's housing runs from 1920s bungalows in Seminole Heights and Hyde Park to new construction in New Tampa. If you are unsure of your home's permit year, we can confirm it during scheduling.
Savings depend on your carrier and which features your home has. Discounts apply to the wind portion of your premium and commonly land in the 15% to 45% range of that portion. In Tampa, older urban neighborhoods frequently have cast iron drains, cloth wiring and original panels — the conditions carriers scrutinize most closely on a 4-point.
